Pre-Medical Course.
The fact that a liberal education is necessary to the successful
study and practice of medicine, is being recognized more and more
by leading authorities in the profession. To enable students, there-
fore, to obtain both the degrees of Bachelor of Arts, and Doctor of
Medicine, in seven instead of eight years, a special pre-medical course
of academic studies has been outlined by a joint committee of the
two colleges of the University concerned.
The student who completes this course in the College of Liberal
Arts, will be able to enter without examination, not only the Medical
College of the University of Cincinnati (The Medical College of
Ohio), but any of the other great schools of medicine. Under this
arrangement, a student on first being admitted to the College of
Liberal Arts, must obtain permission from the Dean to elect the
pre-medical course, which is so outlined as to enable him to meet
the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in three years.
The pre-medical course is as follows :

Remarkable Tables.
Before entering college, one who contemplates the study of
medicine and surgery, must present evidence of preliminary edu-
cation to a degree prescribed by law.
He must then attend four sessions in a college recognized by
the State Board of Medical Examination and Registration, such a
college being one whose sessions are each of thirty weeks' actual
work (exclusive of holidays and examinations) and of not less
than nine hundred hours of work. He must pass each branch with
an average of not less than seventy-five and after receiving his
diploma he must again be examined by the State Board before he
can practice his chosen profession.
In the issue of the Journal of the American Medical Associa-
tion, under date of May 6, 1905, was published a remarkable table
of statistics upon the results of Examinations by the Boards of the
different states. In an editorial in the same issue it is remarked
that "Many lessons can be learned by those sufficiently interested
to dig them out."
The prospective student before selecting a college would do well
to carefully inspect that lesson which is dug out for his informa-
tion and presented in the tables which follow :

This institution has been officially notified, under date of August
13, 1903, by the Conjoint Examining Boards of the Royal Col-
leges of Physicians and Surgeons of England, that "it has been
added to the list of schools recognized by this Board, whose grad-
uates may be admitted to the final examination, on producing the
required certificates of professional study and of having passed
a recognized preliminary examination in general education."
There are but few colleges in the United States which have
the recognition of the Examining Boards of the Royal Colleges of
Physicians and Surgeons of England.

Buildings.
The college is located on the McMicken homestead lot, on
McMicken Avenue, at the head of Elm Street. This lot has a front-
age of three hundred feet, extending back about the same distance
to Clifton Avenue. The Lecture and Laboratory building is four
stories above the basement, which is itself above ground level,
and is constructed of cut stone and brick, with iron stairways and
internal finish of the most substantial character.
On the basement floor are small lecture or demonstration rooms,
students' sitting room, lockers, X-Ray and electrical laboratory and
the dark room for photographic work. On the first floor are the
Registrar's office, the Faculty room, museum, and students' reading
room. The second floor contains the laboratories of bacteriology, of
normal and pathological histology, of physiology, and of embryology,
all thoroughly equipped with modern apparatus. On the third floor
are two large lecture rooms, furnished with comfortable opera chairs
with tablet arms. The fourth floor is occupied by a large dissecting
room and chemical laboratory. In immediate connection with these
is a lecture room for demonstrations in chemistry and anatomy.
The surgical laboratory is also on this floor.
The Dispensary building is a one-story brick structure on the
lower extremity of tlje lot on McMicken Avenue. Its dimensions
are 123 by 50 feet. It contains eight small lecture rooms, each
with an adjoining waiting room for patients, a dispensing drug
room, and a room for necessary chemical and microscopical investi-
gation of the cases daily presenting themselves for treatment.
Although in the center of a densely populated district that af-
fords an immense clinical field, the site of the college building is,
nevertheless, upon high ground, commanding a fine view of the
greater portion of the city. Ventilation is perfect, and each room
so well lighted as to permit all laboratory work to be done by day,
even in cloudy weather, without artificial illumination.

are used for the same purpose. Prof. Phelps. Recitations, two
hours weekly upon assigned lessons, Dr. Wm. E. List.
12 Department of Medicine
Junicrs. — Three lectures weekly upon Regional or Surgical
Anatomy. The entire body is studied and relations are demon-
strated by means of a freshly dissected cadaver and also by using
preserved wet dissections. These demonstrations, as well as those
of the second and first years, are made to groups of threes or
fours; thus being demonstrations in fact. Prof. Phelps. One
recitation weekly upon assigned lessons. Dr. E. O. Smith.
Chemistry.
PROF. CRANE.
The work in Chemistry consists of lectures and recitations
extending through the first t»n years, supplemented by illustra-
tive laboratory course*-
During the first year there are two lectures a week and two
recitations. The greater part of the course is devoted to Ele-
mentary Chemistry, with special attention to facts bearing upon
the science of medicine. A course in Organic Chemistry is given
during the second term. The lectures are illustrated as fully as
possible by descriptive experiments. The laboratory work covers
the reactions of the commoner acids and bases as an introduction
to work in qualitive analysis.
In the second year there is one lecture a week and one reci-
tation. The course supplements the lectures in Physiology and
embraces a study of the foodstuffs and the chemistry of the body.
The modern methods of clinical diagnosis are described as
fully as possible, with illustratible demonstrations. Special effort
is made to present the subject in such a way that it will have a
practical bearing upon clinical work. In the laboratory course the
experiments follow the lectures and demonstrations.
Physiology.
PROF. MUHLBERG.
Physiology is taught during the first two years of the college
course. Both the didactic and the laboratory methods are em-
ployed. During his first year the student listens to the didactic
lectures, which are delivered three times a week, and which cover
the entire subject. He also prepares one recitation weekly. During
the second year three lectures weekly are delivered.
The laboratory instruction is considered an essential part of
the teaching. One hundred and twenty-six hours are devoted to
physiological physics, and experiments on nerve^muscle circula-
tion, respiration, blood and the central nervous system, are per-
formed by the student himself.
The laboratory is well fitted out with the most modern ap-
paratus. Throughout the course, demonstrations, involving tech-
nique too difficult for the student to master, are given by the
instructor.
Medical College of Ohio. 13
This laboratory work which is given during the freshman year
is supplemented by laboratory instruction in physiological chemistry
during the sophomore year.
In this manner the whole field of Physiology is covered by the
laboratory method.
Materia Medica and Therapeutics.
PROF. POOLE.
In the second year Prof. Poole will give two lectures per week
on Pharmacology, and Dr. Baker two recitations a week on Materia
Medica.
In this course the action and dosage of drugs are particu-
larly emphasized and their therapeutic uses noted.
The instruction in the third year consists of one lecture per
week on Therapeutics by Prof. Poole, and one lecture per week
by Dr. Ford on Physiologic Therapeutics, including Hydrotherapy,
Massage, Mineral Springs, Climatology, etc. Frequent practice in
prescription writing is also afforded.
Every student, in both sophomore and junior years, must serve
in the drug-room of the dispensary. In the recitations upon
Materia Medica, specimens of chemicals and drugs, from the large
collection made for the purpose, are shown to each student.
Dr. Ford will deliver the lectures on Dietetics and the juniors
will receive practical instruction in Electro-Therapeutics and
X-Ray work from Dr. H. K. Dunham.

tion is more firmly impressed upon the student. Post Mortem
examinations are held at the City Hospital and the Sophomores are
called upon to attend.
Ophthalmology.
PROF. AYRES.
The systematic instruction in this branch occupies one hour
weekly during the fourth year, and is supplemented by Prof.
Ayres' weekly clinics at the hospital and by the daily clinic at tht
college dispensary, which is conducted by Drs. W. M. Ayres,
Walter Forchheimer, Behrman and Ranly.
Dermatology and Syphilology.
PROF. RAVOGLI.
The frequency with which the diseases of this department are
encountered in practice renders the study exceedingly important.
Prof. Ravogli lectures didactically once a week during the fourth
year, and, with his assistants, Drs. Tauber, Vos and Werk, gives
practical instruction to the class in sections, three times a week, in
the college dispensary.
Genito- Urinary Diseases.
PROF. EVANS.
Instruction is carried on didactically and clinically. In the
didactic lectures, injuries and surgical diseases of the kidney,
pelvis of the kidney, ureter, bladder, prostate, testicles, spermatic
cord, penis and urethra, are considered, and the lectures are illus-
trated by numerous specimens, also by patients from the ambula-
tory clinic.
Clinical instruction is given daily at the clinic, and the ample
material enables students not only to become familiar with this
class of diseases, but to also personally treat, the cases from the
time they enter the clinic until they are discharged.
Mental Diseases.
PROF. BEEBE.
Weekly lectures are given to the Senior Class in which these
affections are systematically treated.
Neurology.
Lectures are delivered on nervous diseases once per week by
Professors Zenner and Hoppe.
These lectures are illustrated by charts as well as by Pathological
specimens, macroscopic and microscopic.
16 Department of Medicine

course of instruction is supplemented by hours of clinical work in
the college dispensary. The juniors and seniors attend all the
lectures upon the subject at the City Hospital.
Diseases of the Ear, Nose and Throat.
PROF. HOLMES.
During the fourth year one didactic lecture a week is given
on these diseases, together with three clinics a week at the college
dispensary. The class in small sections is given personal instruc-
tion by Prof. Holmes, Prof. Iglauer and their corps of able assis-
tants in the methods of diagnosis, examination, operation and treat-
ment of the large number of cases presenting themselves.
Diseases of Children.
PROF. RACHFORD.
One weekly didactic lecture, in the fourth .year, together with
hospital lectures by Prof. Rachford and class work in the dispensary,
conducted by Dr. Friedlander, Dr. Woodward and their assistants,
familiarizes the student with every phase of this important branch.
Orthopedic Surgery.
PROF. FREIBERG.

week upon personal hygiene and the prevention of transmissable
diseases ; municipal hygiene concerning the water supply, sewerage,
and the disposal of garbage, and upon food adulterations.
Medical College of Ohio. 17
The Chemical Laboratory.
The laboratory work is divided into two courses, which are
arranged to illustrate the didactic lectures in chemistry.
i. Elementary Chemistry — This course consists of experiments
in organic Chemistry, and a preliminary study of the commoner
acids and bases. It is intended for those who have had no prac-
tical work in the subject.
2. Physiological Chemistry — The work of this course is devoted
to the Chemistry of the tissues and secretions. The plan adopted
is to review briefly the reaction of the .proteids and carbohydrates,
and then to study the more important secretions. Practical illustra-
tion is given of those methods of clinical diagnosis which require
familiarity with chemical manipulation.
The work in the laboratory is preceded by an informal talk
or demonstration, and at the end of the term an examination is
held upon the subjects covered by the course.
Histological Laboratory.
The aim of this course is to inculcate a thorough knowledge
of minute anatomy, and render the student familiar with laboratory
technique. Physiology and pathology are incomprehensible without
a previous course in Histology, and it is therefore placed at the
very beginning of the curriculum. The course consists of forty-
five exercises of two hours each, including lectures, demonstra-
tions and recitations on each subject. The laboratory is perfect in
light and equipment. Microscopes and re-agents are provided.
The course is conducted by Drs. Salzer and Baker, and will begin
October I, 1905. Clarkson's Text Book of Histology.
Pathological Laboratory.
In the Laboratory of Pathological Histology each student is
given about one hundred carefully selected and stained specimens,
which he mounts for study and retains for future reference.
These specimens are studied by the aid of the projection micro-
scope which throws the specimen to be studied on the screen,
while the student is viewing the same specimen under his micro-
scope. This leaves no room for misinterpretation of any part of
the specimen and furthermore the demonstration is uniform to
every student. After a study of each soecimen the student is
required to make an accurate drawing of the lesion and make the
necessary notes.
The systematic course opens with a studv of degeneration
This is followed by a study of inflammation in the frog's omentum,
18 Department of Medicine
in the living animal, and in carefully selected sections from man.
Tumors are demonstrated from the point of view of differential
diagnosis and the evidences of malignancy. The remainder of the
course is devoted to a study of the lesions of the viscera as they
occur in the various infectious diseases, with especial reference to
their relationship to micro-organism. Each student is furnished
with a microscope and reagents.
The laboratory is under the direction of Dr. Marion Whitacre,
assisted by Dr. G. B. Rhodes.
Bacteriological Laboratory.
The work in this department. is entirely practical. The student
is supplied with culture tubes, which he inoculates with cultures
furnished, thus working with his own set of cultures. The stock
of cultures is constantly renewed and increased, and contains all
the important pathogenic bacteria capable of cultivation, and many
interesting non-pathogenic varieties. Special attention is given to
the clinical diagnosis of tuberculosis, typhoid fever, diphtheria, and
gonorrhoea. The laboratory is well equipped as to apparatus and
microscopes, and will, as heretofore, be conducted by Drs. O. L.
Cameron and H. Freudenberger. Text books : Park McFarland,
Lehman and Neumann, Williams, Abbott.
Surgical Laboratory.
In this department the senior student is given the opportunity
to demonstrate upon the living subject those principles set forth
in the didactic lectures. The work embraces :
(i) A full course in the treatment of fractures and dislocations,
the student applying the various forms of dressing and splints
upon living models; (2) a course in bandaging; (3) local and
general anaesthesia; (4) mechanical treatment of deformities —
Potts' disease (actual cases handled) ; (5) use of stomach tube,
sound, electrodes, etc. ; (6) Catheterization, sounding, bladder
lavage, tapping, etc.; (7) douching, tamponing, etc.; (8) prepara-
tion patients, dressings, instruments for operation ; (9) prepara-
tion and preservation dressings, ligatures, drains, etc., asepsis and
anti-sepsis; (10) the term ends with a course in operative surgery
in which the student, under direction, does minor and major
surgery upon the cadaver.
This department is conducted by Dr. Charles M. Paul, Demon-
strator of Surgery.
Physiological Laboratory.
The Physiological Laboratory has been thoroughly equipped
with modern apparatus. The physiology of the circulation, res-
Medical College of Ohio. 19
pi ration, muscle, nerve, central nervous system, etc., will be taught
by experiments on animals.
The practical experience which the student derives from these
experiments will be of the greatest assistance to him in acquir-
ing an accurate knowledge of the physiology of the human body.
The laboratory will be conducted by Professor William Muehl-
berg during the latter half of the student's first year.
Laboratory of Clinical Microscopy.
In the course for the senior class in Clinical Microscopy, con-
ducted by Dr. Ramsey, are taken up those subjects which are of
greatest importance in the matter of microscopic diagnosis.
The early part of the demonstrations is devoted to microscopic
examinations of the blood, including the blood count, the dif-
ferential count, the characteristics of anaemia, chlorosis, leucocy-
tosis, leukaemia, pernicious anaemia, the various malarial organisms
in the unstained as well as in the stained condition.
Later on, special attention is paid to the microscopic diagnosis
of the gastro-intestinal tract, including diphtheria and the micro-
scopic examination of faeces, intestinal parasites and their ova.
Furthermore, a thorough examination of diseased conditions of the
genito-urinary tract, with special attention to urinalysis ; also an
examination of sputum and parasitic skin diseases.
Diagnosis of pathological new formations to determine the
nature of new growths complete the course.
The material is quite abundant from cases in private practice,
and from the laboratory in the curator's department of the hospital.
The Practical Anatomy Department.
The rooms are remarkably well adapted for the purposes to
which they are devoted, being thoroughly equipped and well ar-
ranged. There is always an abundance of fresh material, kept in
cold storage, the material being previously embalmed. There are
none of those unpleasant features about the work experienced
where the old brine method is used.
The course in Comparative Anatomy, which is open to the
freshman class, is entirely of a practical nature. Here the men are
instructed first in the handling of the scalpel, the forceps and other
instruments which are used not only in post-mortem work, but
in operative procedures later on, and second, they become familiar
with the appearance, location and names of the various tissues
and organs of the body. As a result of this the student is vastly
better qualified to begin the study of human anatomy. The cat is
used as the subject in this course. The text book used is "A
Laboratory Guide for the Dissection of the Cat" by Gorham and
Tower. This course is conducted by Dr. R. W. C. Francis.
20 Department of Medicine
Electro -Therapeutic Laboratory.
The equipment is complete. The course consists of thirty exer-
cises of two hours each, a combination of didactic and demonstrative
instruction.
Didactically, the theories and principles of the various currents
are taught; practically, the apparatus is shown and explained, but
stress is put upon the clinical uses of electricity and the X-Ray, and
for these demonstrations patients from the dispensary are used, so
that the student becomes familiar with the value (and limitations)
of the X-Ray in diagnosis and treatment. The course is conducted
by Dr. H. K. Dunham, assisted by Dr. Leon G. Tedesche.
Embryological Laboratory.
The course will consume 30 exercises of 2 hours each and will
combine lectures, recitations and demonstrations.
Each student will be given stained specimens for microscopic
study, illustrating development from the time of conception until
the adult formation is indicated, and will be expected to make a
series of drawing from these. -
This study will be carried on mainly with the chick, but as far
as possible the human embryo will be employed.
The laboratory is under the direction of Dr. H. L. Woodward.
Pharmaceutical Laboratory.
To secure the necessary credits in Pharmacology the student
must serve two weeks in the sophomore year and again two weeks
in the junior year under the direction of Dr. L. C. Schrickel. In
this course the student becomes familiar with the appearance of
drugs, their incompatibles, solvents, etc.
Clinical Facilities.
Students of the Medical College of Ohio enjoy privileges that
cannot be equalled in the West, and probably are not excelled
anywhere. At the Good Samaritan Hospital and the College Dis-
pensary they see the various surgical operations performed, and
the different manifestations of disease pointed out by members of
the College Faculty. The Cincinnati Hospital, where daily clinics
are held, is open alike to all the students of the city, and students
of the College will also be expected to attend the lectures at this
institution during their junior and senior years.
Medical College of Ohio. '^1
The College Dispensary
Which is free to all students of the College, is open daily, and
clinical lectures are delivered on the cases which present them-
selves every afternoon. The juniors and seniors attend the clinics
in orderly sequence according to a schedule dividing the classes
into small groups. Over twelve thousand cases being investigated
and treated yearly, including all forms of disease, often even the
rarest, every day very important clinical material is brought be-
fore the class. In order to utilize to the fullest extent this vast
charity, the Faculty has erected the large building elsewhere re-
ferred to, and fitted up rooms for the reception and accommodation
of patients. The clinics will be conducted in the various depart-
ments at the same hour each afternoon, and students of senior and
junior classes are assigned for fixed periods to these various
departments. In this way students may hear each afternoon mem-
bers of the Faculty and their assistants lecturing upon and demon-
strating diseases in all the various departments of medicine.
These clinics are features thoroughly appreciated by the large
classes of each session, and a large share of the reputation of the
institution is due to the thorough manner in which the. practical
teaching in these rooms has been conducted.
This class of dispensary cases — the minor surgical, the "walk-
ins:" medical cases, the chronic cases, etc., is just the class that
will form the bulk of the work for the young practitioner during
his first few years, at least.
The Medical Clinic consists of a waiting room, a small
amphitheater for fifty students and a room for microscopical and
chemical examinations. There present themselves twelve to twenty
new cases daily, making about five thousand a year. In pulmonary,
cardiac, gastro-intestinal, hepatic, renal, malarial, exanthematic,
etc., every variety of walking cases is seen, and Professor Greiwe
and Drs. Stix and Fihe and their assistants, in addition to- their
clinical lectures, give students opportunities to make physical ex-
aminations. Students are expected to procure their own stetho-
scopes, thermometers, etc.
The Surgical Clinic has a waiting room and a small lecture
room, seating about forty. Here is presented every variety of
minor surgery, accidents, venereal cases, rectal diseases, etc. The
clinic is conducted by Prof. Carothers, Dr. Paul and Dr. Hiller and
their assistants.
The Children's Clinic. — Nearly one thousand new cases are
treated annually. This class, in small subdivisions, has direct
charge of the examination, treatment and record of these cases,
22 Department of Medicine
under the supervision of Drs. Friedlander and Woodward and their
assistants. Each variety of infantile disorder is seen during the term.
The Gynaecological Clinic. — All of the large number of
diseases peculiar to women are ocularly, and many of them
physically examined by the class in subdivisions, and the greater
majority of gynaecological operations are, performed in their pres-
ence. The staff of this department consists of Profs. Zinke and
Rowe, and Drs. McKee, Miller, Speidel, Podesta, Ashfield and
Buttemiller.
The Obstetrical Clinic. — Prof. Zinke, with the assistance of
Prof. Rowe, continues to conduct the outdoor obstetrical clinic,
and illustrates upon the living the clinical features of pregnancy,
labor and confinement at the Ohio Maternity Hospital. Members
of graduating class are given opportunities of witnessing and con-
ducting cases of labor at the homes of patients, as well as wit-
nessing the diseases of pregnancy and cases of parturition at this
hospital. During the past session one hundred cases of confine-
ment were attended by members of the graduating class.
The Eye Clinic has a waiting room, lecture room, and a dark
room, with a twenty-foot range for refraction work, and three
stalls, with adjustable Argand burners for ophthalmoscopic work.
Twelve hundred new cases are treated annually. Daily lectures
are given by Drs. Forchheimer, Wylie M. Ayres, Ranly or Behrman.
All commoner diseases are presented in abundance. Prof. Ayres
also lectures here once a week.
The Ear, Nose and Throat Clinic has, in addtion to the usual
waiting room and clinical amphitheater, an apartment furnished
with specially constructed individual stalls and lights for the
training of divided classes of students in the technique of exam-
ination and treatment of the ear, nose and throat. Several
hundred cases are treated annually. Professor Holmes, Prof. Iglauer,
Drs. Hinnen, Mithoefer and Stoll conduct the clinic. The equip-
ment of this clinic is unexcelled, and students are required to make
many of the minor operations.
In the Nervous Department clinics are held twice a week
by Profs. Zenner and Hoppe and Dr. Hildebrandt. The student has
an opportunity to familiarize himself with all forms of organic and
functional disease of the nervous system, and with the use of
electricity, with appliances for which this department is thoroughly
furnished.
The Skln Clinic is conducted by Prof. Ravogli, assisted by
Drs. E. B. Tauber, A. Vos and G. H. Werk, who, in three clinics
per week, are able to demonstrate all of the common, and many of
the rare affections.
Medical College of Ohio. 2.'{
The Orthopedic Clinic, conducted by Prof. Freiberg, assisted
by Dr. C. R. McClure, is held twice weekly, and gives opportunity
for demonstrating the important conditions amenable to ambula-
tory orthopedic treatment.
The Genito-Ukinary Clinic has been rendered necessary by
the large number of these cases heretofore attending the surgical
department. In this separate division, conducted by Prof. Evan-,
Dr. E. O. Smith and their assistants, abundant opportunity will
be given for practical demonstration of the diseased conditions
taken up systematically in their didactic hours.
Diseases cf the Thorax. — Dr. Lyle gives clinical instruction
to small classes upon the diseases of the thorax, using selected
cases. Particular attention is given to pulmonary tuberculosis,
and the student is taught all the methods of physical examination
upon the patients presented.
Hospitals and Hospital Appointments.
The Good Samaritan Hospital.
The clinical instruction of this important hospital is conducted
exclusively bv the Faculty, as follows : Professor Ayres and Dr.
Walter Forchheimer, Clinical Ophthalmology; Professor Holmes,
Otology: Professor Connor, Clinical Surgery; Professor Forch-
heimer, Clinical Medicine; Professor Bonifield, Clinical Gynaecology;
Professor Rachford, Clinical Diseases of Children ; Professor Ranso-
hoff. Clinical Surgery.
The Good Samaritan contains about four hundred beds,
the number having been considerably increased by the additional
buildings erected recently. There is also, as a tributary, an out-
door department in connection with the hospital, adding materially
to its resources. An abundance of clinical material is thus af-
forded both in the departments of medicine and surgery. The
clinical instruction at the bedside will be conducted t>y Prof. J.
E. Greiwe, physical diagnosis being taught practically. Two half
days of each week are devoted to clinical lectures (which arc
free to students of this college).
Students of this college only are eligible for interneship in the
Good Samaritan Hospital. There are four positions filled anew
annnually.
The Cincinnati Hospital
Is the largest public hospital in the city, about 9.000 cases yearly,
where students of all medical schools are admitted on equal terms.
Two hours daily are devoted to clinical instruction by the hospital
staff. Students of the Medical College of Ohio will here receive
24 Department of Medicine
practical instruction from a number of their own Faculty — the Col-
lege being represented on the staff by Prof. Ransohoff in the
Surgical, Profs. Poole and Rachford in the Children's, Dr. Hoppc
in the Neurological, Prof. Ravogli and Prof. Evans in the Derma-
tological, Profs. C. A. L. Reed and C. L. Bonifield in the Gynaeco-
logical, Prof. Freiberg in the Orthopedic, and Prof, Greiwe, Prof.
Whitacre and Prof. Rowe in the Pathological departments. Students
of the College are expected to attend the jelinical lectures of this
institution during their last two terms. Bedside instruction (to
advanced students) will be carried on by the staff throughout the
session, thus many hours of valuable instruction are received over
and above those required for clinical credits.
Mt. Auburn Hospital for Children.
Dr. Ramsey will give bedside instruction to small classes weekly.
German Deaconess' Hospital.
Prof. Zinke once a week will give bedside instruction to small
groups.
